Cost & Personnel Requirements: All materials were supplied from the MindSET inventory. Personnel requirements consisted of volunteers. V. Special Problems: The aluminum foil sheet provided (12” x 9”) was half the size of what was given at Dogwood Elementary, which reduced the size of the boats and the amount of coins needed to sink the boats! The students piled on the coins and were really excited about the amount of coins their boats could hold but no official scoring was kept. We just kept track of whose boat could hold the most coins relative to everyone else’s boat. This could be an area of improvement. Also, we alotted too much time to the actual construction of the boats and had to rush a little through the testing. VI.
